<span>In Babylonia, tunnels were used extensively for irrigation; and a brick-lined pedestrian passage some 3,000 feet (900 meters) long was built about 2180 to 2160 BC under the Euphrates River to connect the royal palace with the temple. Hopefully this answer helps

What is the weight of the cow?
Answer:
<em>7, 22</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let S = the smaller number.
"The larger number is 1 more than 3 times the smaller number."
The larger number is 3S + 1.
The difference between the numbers is 15, so the larger number minus the smaller number equals 15.
3S + 1 - S = 15
2S + 1 = 15
2S = 14
S = 7
The smaller number is 7.
larger number = 3S + 1 = 3(7) + 1 = 21 + 1 = 22
The larger number is 22.
It is just the difference between the signs
Because both answers equal y, we can set them equal to each other. So, -8x=-5x-9. Add five over to get -3x=-9. Divide and x=3. Then plug 3 in to solve for y. -8(3)=24. The ordered pair is (3,24).
